Actor Akshaye Khanna tells he doesn't look like his late
father and actor Vinod Khanna.
Questioned if Akshaye would like to play his father's
character in a biopic, Akshaye said, "To portray any real life character,
you have to look like that person. I don't look anywhere close to my father...
Not an option."
Vinod Khanna died in April after a prolonged illness at the
age of 70. The actor was admitted to Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital in
the first week of April after reportedly suffering from severe dehydration.
Questioned if he wants a biopic to be made on his father,
Akshaye told, "I haven't ever thought about it so I can't say. But I think
biopics by nature, I suppose as accurate as they can be, the better for an
actor. It's very challenging as well as risky for an actor to portray a real
life character because you are portraying some one who actually existed. So, it
becomes really difficult."
Akshaye, 42, feels that one must think "10 times before
portraying a real life person".
He will next be seen in "Ittefaq", a thriller movie,
helmed by Abhay Chopra. It is an adaptation of the 1969 movie by the same name.
